Shown is a HV transmission tower that collapsed after severe storms rolled through the northeast side of San Antonio last Sunday night into early Monday morning. Some winds reached 110 mph with 4 confirmed tornadoes. Further in the background, another tower is completely collapsed down to the ground. Around 130 houses were damaged or destroyed, but no one was fatally injured. Our severe weather usually starts in March and lasts until mid May, but it looks like it's starting earlier this year.
